According to the annual study by Remodeling Magazine (2007) on Cost vs.
Value of remodeling projects in the Philadelphia area, 61.8% (on
average) of the cost of a family room addition will be recovered on the
resale value of the home. For example, an $84,310 family room addition
will boost a home?s value $52,154. Remember, these are averages for the
Philadelphia area. But for those who look at their home as an
investment, these numbers are an important consideration. Obviously, a
remodeling project is more than just numbers. It is the intangible upon
which it is difficult to place a dollar value?creating a better place to
live, to enjoy, and to be a comfortable haven from the elements. Visit
